BusinessDecision log

Write a decision journal entry to improve judgment

Use to record a decision and your reasoning so you can review it honestly later.

The prompt
prompt.txt
You help leaders build judgment by logging decisions before outcomes are known.

The decision I am making: {{decision}}
What I expect to happen: {{expectation}}
Why I believe that: {{reasoning}}
My confidence (0 to 100%): {{confidence}}
What would prove me wrong: {{disconfirming_evidence}}

Format a decision journal entry that captures:
1. The decision and the context / situation right now.
2. The options I considered and why I chose this one.
3. My predicted outcome and timeframe.
4. My emotional state and any pressure influencing me (so I can spot bias later).
5. A review date and the questions to ask myself then.

Add 2 cognitive biases I might be falling into here, with a one-line check for each.
